1:1 executive coaching:
Emotional balance, clear thinking and vitality
This 1:1 coaching supports leaders who want to recover from chronic stress or expand their capacity. Through breath-based nervous system training, we work towards clearer thinking, emotional balance and more reliable recovery. Sessions are tailored to your starting point, goals and daily life, online or in person in Berlin.
Who this coaching is for
Your starting point may be exhaustion and overload, or a wish to access more of your potential. We shape the work around what you need now.
Leaders facing chronic stress or burnout
Fatigue and mental fog
You feel tired but wired, struggle to switch off, or wake without feeling rested. Brain fog, overthinking and poor concentration make everyday decisions and work feel harder than they used to.
Anxiety and irritability
You feel overwhelmed at work, more anxious or more easily irritated. Difficult conversations take more out of you, and you find it harder to pause, regain perspective and respond as you would like.
Leaders ready to expand their capacity
Mental clarity and creative range
You want stronger concentration, clearer decisions and more access to creativity. You are ready to develop the capacity to move between focused work and the wider perspective that strategic thinking requires.
Presence and composure
You want to stay calm under pressure and bring greater presence to your leadership. That means listening well, handling difficult conversations with care, and meeting demanding moments without losing your balance.
Regulate your nervous system and build capacity
Breath gives you a practical way to notice and influence your state. Regular practice can build a steadier foundation for clear thinking, emotional balance and connection, both in demanding moments and across daily life.
In our 1:1 work, you learn functional breathing techniques suited to your needs. We start with stability and recovery, then expand your practice as your capacity develops. We also address the habits and conditions that support lasting change.

“I felt massive shifts in my clarity, decision-making, and ability to think clearly. Especially in the startup world there is always a dozen things that fight for your attention. I can really put them into their place and prioritize what is really important in the moment — and from there make much better decisions.”
Lukas Fingerle
/ Founder & CTO
Practical tools for leaders with demanding schedules
The work is designed to fit into your life. You receive personal guidance, practical resources and support between sessions, so you can build a practice that remains useful beyond our time together.
Tailored 1:1 Guidance
We choose your starting point through an onboarding questionnaire and conversation. Private sessions combine guided practice, reflection and personal guidance, with progress reviews to keep the work aligned with your goals.
Practices for your day-to-day
Use guided audios and simple techniques before difficult conversations, between tasks or when you need to recover. Optional theory resources help you understand the practice and use it independently in daily life.
Support between sessions
You can contact me on WhatsApp for questions, guidance and practice adjustments. We adapt the work to your progress, building a stable foundation before introducing more demanding practices to expand your capacity.
Build capacity for work and life
Mental clarity and focus
Work towards less mental noise and more available attention. Regain your focus when demands compete, stay with the task in front of you and recognise what matters most.
Calm under pressure
Develop the composure to listen, communicate and respond with care in high-stakes moments. Bring greater leadership presence to meetings and difficult conversations.
Better decisions and wider perspective
Approach decisions with greater clarity and less reactivity. Build access to strategic thinking, creative ideas and the ability to consider more than the most immediate demand.
More reliable recovery
Build a routine that helps you settle after demanding days, ease tension and make space for rest. Support more restorative sleep and the energy to engage fully with life.
What leaders experienced
“The breathing has helped me to take better decisions. When you calm yourself down, you are able to look at all the different elements of a decision, structure those elements properly, and it is easy to prioritize them and find the right path.”
Dr. Daphne Hering
Founder & ceo, cyra Capital
“There is so much change — an ever-changing environment that produces so much pressure from the outside and very often from the inside. I find breathwork is a very effective tool to simplify all that complexity and just make sense of it.”
Tim Ermak
FOUNDER & SENIOR AI PRODUCT MANAGER
“I have noticed on the days when I do my breathwork practice that I have a clearer head and I can be more focused. When I do 10 minutes of breathwork, I can focus much better.”
Bryony Cooper
DIRECTOR INVESTOR RELATIONS, PT1
“I was able to stay calm pitching on stage in front of several thousand people — thanks to controlling my breath before, and just in general being able to ground myself.”
Lucas Boller
FOUNDER & CEO, KINETIC
